I was all for giving him a fair chance, and think he deserves a little more time, but I'll be honest and admit I'm worried considering he got worse over time, instead of better...even with Xavi's idiotic tactics of sticking him far out wide where he is at his worst.

It is clear he has talent, but it seems he wasnt that influential until towards the end of the season, when considering stats as well. Definitely one to keep an eye on.

Thanks! His touch and finesse are great to watch. High hopes for him.

How was Pablo Torre, the game wasnt on any streaming services here.

Sterling is a very talented and EFFECTIVE player. His finishing is subpar, but he offers so much else. Tons of pace and can beat his man. Decent vision. I rather have a player that knows how to get into scoring positions and scores 1/4 every few games than a player who doesnt offer nearly as...

If they are paying him more vs the 40% reduced wages rumor then that is sadness. Still only a 2 year deal so not terrible, but sad.

Koulibaly is gone and reports are stating he wants to go to England. Hope we have a plan C.

As I said, the coaches in the past were wrong, as history has proven. Xavi is also wrong, since top teams are continuing to expose him the same way they did with the previous coaches. It's not that complicated to understand. Try a little harder.

I agree we need to be smart with our money, but what striker is out there and available for 50mil? Even if we take a punt on a young 23 year old striker, will he be good for more than 2-3 years for us? Lewa is as close to a safe bet as it gets, and other than injury we can rest assured he will...

To be honest. After spending 150mil on Coutinho and 120mil on Griezman, 110mil on Lewandowski and Raphinha doesnt seem so bad, although we are definitely overpaying a little for each. Last winter if I had a choice between 50mil for Torres and 50mil for Lewa, it would of been tough but I...

Well thank God you, Xavi and our last few coaches were around to think of and play Busquets as a starter the last half decade. We've won so many titles with him at the heart of our midfield and totally havent gotten embarrassed in the CL with him being the absolute beast of a DM that he is...

You're probably thinking you're clever. Yet you spend half your day on a forum spewing pointless nonsense. That tells most people all they need to know. Sad, really. Keep at it though bud, make mamma proud.

Not sure why the mods allow all these trolls. Waste of time to sift through all the garbage posts. Also, anyone posting "Stunning" should also be banned for being unoriginal and a tool.

It doesnt matter how well he's done the last two seasons. You cannot outrun time. No amount of conditioning is going to defy biology. He's going to decline physically each year we have him starting at 34 and his joints and knees are ticking time bombs. I was all for signing him IF the price was...

40 plus 5 in variables is already more than fair. I agree, let them battle it out. Take it or leave it. 45 on Lewandowski, 55 on Raphina. Does that leave us with any money for new, effective fullbacks after registering Christensen and Kessie? A midfield signing should only be made if De Jong...

Spending 55mil on an unproven, injured and generally unimpressive Torres was already a bad start for Laporta. I dont care whether or not Xavi wanted him, it was way too much money. If we want to continue to be known a the club you can rip off, anything over 35 (40 with difficult variables) is...

LoooooooooooooooooL Get out of here already.

We have plenty of CMs with Kessie coming in. Why get rid of De Jong to buy a DM when he should have already been groomed as our next DM. He has the skill and profile to play as a modern DM for us.

Koulibaly is a very good player but he turns 31 in a few days. It doesnt make sense to spend 30-35mil on a CB when we may be able to get a very good 24 year old one for a bit more. Christensen is younger, so I wouldn't be against Koulibaly. I just see how Kounde is experienced and also a better...

Bernardo Silva and Di Maria are completely different players. Sterling played out wide for LFC when he was very young, and maybe a bit once first signed by City. Otherwise, 90% of the time he's been at City he has neither played or thrived as a far wide winger.
